Dear Colleagues.
It is with great pleasure that we can now announce that the general registration for the “L5 in Tandem with L1: Future Space-Weather Missions Workshop” to take place in London, UK, 06-09 March 2017 will open at 12:00UT on Friday 02 December 2016. We apologise for the delay in opening the registration.
The Workshop will be held at the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) conference centre in central London supported by GO Science, Met Office, and STFC, and organised by STFC, Met Office, and NOAA SWPC. There will be no registration fee, and lunches and refreshments will be provided to all participants.
The workshop is limited to 80 participants on a first-come, first-serve basis of registration. If a registration place is still available, please ensure that you register under the ‘Open Ticket’ option and NOT the ‘Reserved Ticket’ option so as not to risk your registration being invalid (unless you have been separately instructed to use this option by personal E-Mail from one of the WOC Co-Chairs). The Open Registration will close at 18:00UT on Friday 20 January 2017 (even when all the allocations have been taken as some people may choose to later cancel their registration before the deadline).
The potential events are still under negotiation, and so a reminder will be sent nearer the time asking if and which events you wish to sign up for based on the E-Mail address you use to register. In addition, a link to the abstract-submission page will also be sent to the same address before the end of 2016.
The registration website is here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/l5-in-tandem-with-l1-future-space-weather-missions-workshop-tickets-28653847429 – the reserved places are the top option – and if you have any problems, please contact me by reply to this E-Mail. The password to access the site is: SpaceWeatherL5 and is case sensitive.
In addition, if you are indeed interested in attending the workshop (or generally in the L5 space-weather missions ideas) and haven’t already done so, please ensure you subscribe to the L5 Space Weather mailing list so that you get ALL the Workshop-related announcements, then please send an E-Mail (from the E-Mail address you wish to register) to listserv@jiscmail.ac.uk with the subject left and the following line in the body of the E-Mail:

then follow the instructions from the automated reply system and after this Mario will be able to confirm your registration manually in the Jiscmail system. Only people registered on the list will be able to mail to the list as well as receive from the list. Mario is the lead owner/moderator of the list to ensure the list is well maintained and not abused.
Best wishes,
Mario (on behalf of the WOC Co-Chairs).
